Grand Bend Speedway kicked off the 2022 racing season Saturday evening.  Highlights of the night included strong competition from the Mini Truck series where Austin Arnel (#29) held off a charging Mason Collver (#20) for the victory and the Grand Bend Speedway debut of the Great Lakes Legends series that saw Kenny McNicol (#5) hang on for the win during a last-lap attempt by DJ Christie (#25) to get to the front in lapped traffic.

Other winners on the night included Dylan Graham (#4) in the Junior Sprints, Kara Martin (#53) in the Junior Late Models, Mike Verboom (#02) in the 9HP Mini Sprints, and Kyle Neumeister (#92) in the North Coast Compact Challenge.

The next race event at Grand Bend Speedway is next Saturday, June 4 featuring Bone Stock 50-Lap “INFAMOUS 100” Qualifier Race, 9HP Mini Sprints, Jr Sprints, Rookie Trucks, Jr Late Models, and Pro Stocks.  The evening will also bring the opportunity for fans to put themselves to the test in King of the Hill Spectator races that let fans compete in their street cars in one-on-one drag races around the track.
